The man’s tone was indifferent, with no hint of anger nor any detectable emotion.
Assistant Xue couldn’t figure out what his boss was thinking, but he couldn’t help his curiosity and asked, "Boss, why don’t we bring Madam back?"
Lu Jingchen looked extrely tired, as if he was completely drained.
Upon hearing Assistant Xue’s question, he did not respond imdiately nor show any signs of anger. Just when Assistant Xue thought he wouldn’t answer, he heard the man’s deep voice saying, "If she is unhappy with , she will be unhappy no matter what. Keeping her by my side is not only a tornt for her but also for myself..."
Assistant Xue, upon hearing this, was utterly confused about what it ant.
Ten minutes later, the plane from An City to Zurich took off. Lu Jingchen sat in the car, his gaze fixed on the plane that was slowly shrinking in his view. His deep eyes were somber, and his lips were tightly pressed into a straight line, showing no discernible emotion.
But no one knew what he was really thinking.
Nobody knew who leaked Song Qiao’s news to the dia, but the next day, almost everyone in An City knew that the wife of CK Corporation’s president had left An City, sparking widespread speculation that the president of CK Corporation had divorced Song Qiao.
That day, after Lu Jingchen returned from the airport to the hospital, his already recovering body not only suffered from worsened wounds but also from possibly suppressed emotions; this exacerbated the pressure on his nerves from the uncleared blood clots in his brain.
That night, Lu Jingchen was taken directly into the operating room, and by the next day, when his and Song Qiao’s news were causing a stir in An City, he still had not regained consciousness.
In the hospital room, Lu Tianming sat on the sofa, glancing at his son lying unconscious on the hospital bed, his expression gloomy and troubled.
The door to the hospital room opened, and Xu Qian walked in carrying a thermos, casting a fleeting look at Lu Tianming on the sofa before she approached the bedside and placed the thermos on the table.
Lu Tianming glanced at his wife and then casually asked, "Did that woman really leave An City?"
Xu Qian’s expression was not very pleasant; even though Lu Tianming was her husband, she wasn’t inclined to show him any good face.
Yet, she didn’t outright refuse to answer his question but responded grudgingly, "Yes, she has already left. She left yesterday."
She was still very fond of Song Qiao; after all, whether it was Song Qiao’s character or personality, she was quite likable. Xu Qian wasn’t like her husband who insisted on matching social status; all she wanted was for her son to be happy and for his partner to treat him well.
She wasn’t unaware of what her husband did to make Song Qiao leave their son, and she even knew that her husband had sought out Song Qiao alone, she just didn’t know what was said.
Lu Tianming snorted coldly, "Let her leave then, what’s the point in making such a fuss, see what she has done to my son?"
Xu Qian, already upset by Lu Jingchen’s condition and having been holding a grudge against Lu Tianming recently, found herself clashing with him in everything.
So, hearing him say such things, she imdiately retorted, "What has this to do with little Qiao?"
Lu Tianming glanced at Xu Qian, knowing that she had been opposing him lately, and decided not to say more, considering it improper to start a quarrel between husband and wife in front of others.
...
Zurich’s sumr was not as hot as An City’s but rather cool and refreshing.
Song Qiao had just woken up and saw Chu Munan and Mu Shinian sitting in the living room watching TV. Although it was already past ten o’clock, everyone had gone to sleep right after dinner last night due to the fatigue from the flight.
Since her pregnancy, Song Qiao had been sleepy. She had been trying hard to control her sleep, sticking to a fixed sleep schedule each day. But yesterday, she was so exhausted that she accidentally slept until ten o’clock, totaling ten hours of sleep.
Chu Munan, hearing the noise, was the first to notice Song Qiao co out. His expression softened and he asked with a smile, "You’re up? Are you hungry? I’ll call to have als delivered right away."
